What if people hadn't learned to write?
The fact of the invention of writing belongs to Ancient Egypt. This happened so long time ago that now we are taking this ability for granted. But what would have happened if people hadn't learned to write? How would life be different? How would people's ideas or actions be different?
First of all the educational level of people would have been much lower, because the writing is one of the cornerstone of the learning process. Without it we couldn't have accumulated and save the information. Of course people can learn something by hurt, but if we had used only this way to keep the knowledge, the class of educated people would have been quite narrow.
Furthemore our communication activity would have been only viva voice. We couldn't have sent letters and kept in touch with our distant relatives or friends. It would have been so complicated to interact with people from another cities or countries that we probably would have had friends only who would have lived closer to us.
Generally the development level of the whole humanity would have been much lower. Because the invention of writing gave us the ability to share information about new discoveries in the world, so we could move forward together as the organic whole.
Defenetly life would have been different without writing. What would it look like? We will never know.
